Before I Met You
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I thought I had seen pretty girls in my time that was before I met you
I never saw one that I wanted for mine that was before I met you
I thought I was swinging the world by the tail I thought I could never be blue
I thought I'd been kissed and I thought I'd been loved but that was before I
met you
I thought I'd stay single and always be free but that was before I met you
And I said that no sweet thing could ever hold me but that was before I met you
I thought I was swinging...
I thought I was swinging...
That was before I met you
